The owners of the nursing beds, in accordance with the applicable regulations in force, are
requested to guarantee the safety conditions of the medical products during their use. To
achieve this, it is therefore necessary to regularly carry out inspections and maintenance

Notes for the owner
This bed was manufactured to function properly for a long period of time. When used
correctly, it can be operated for around 2 to 8 years depending on the conditions and
frequency of its use.
After repeated operations of transport, assembly, disassembly, improper and
long-term use it is not possible to exclude that any damages, faults, wear and

Therefore it is necessary both for the owner and the user to follow the safety norms for
medical devices with the implementation of regular inspections to verify the correct
